Warm network discovery — 01
Find the peopleyou already havea reason to know.
Turn your background, communities, and career path into warm connections — without scraping LinkedIn or cold-emailing strangers.
No scraping · No third-party data · Your data is yours
How it works — 02
Build your profile
Enter your background: schools, companies, cities, interests, communities. Everything typed by you — no imports, no scraping, no LinkedIn required.
We surface the overlaps
The matching engine scores shared signals. Same school, same city, former colleagues, shared interests. Multiple weak signals combine into a strong match.
Reach out with context
Browse ranked matches with clear reasons why you're already connected. You know exactly what to say before you say it.
Why warm — 03
Warm introductions land differently.
Cold outreach has a <5% response rate. A message that starts with “we both went to Michigan and worked in fintech” lands completely differently. The common ground was already there — Overlap just finds it.

Your data,
your terms.
Warm networking shouldn’t require giving up control of your data. Overlap is built differently.
You enter everything
Every data point on your profile was typed by you. We never scrape LinkedIn, pull from third-party databases, or import from social platforms.
You control visibility
Set your profile to discoverable or private. Hide specific fields. Opt out of match recommendations entirely. Your data, your rules.
No selling your data
We don't sell, rent, or share your information with advertisers or data brokers. Ever. Your profile exists to help you — not to monetize you.
Delete anytime
Request full account deletion at any time. Your data is permanently removed from our systems within 30 days.
Who it’s for — 05
Anyone who wants to network with intention.
Job seekers
Find alumni and former colleagues now at your target companies — and reach out with a real reason.
Career changers
Discover people who made the same pivot you're considering, from the same starting point.
New to a city
Surface people from your hometown, school, or past industry who are already in your new city.
Founders & builders

Community leaders
Connect people in your orbit who don't know each other yet — matched by shared interest or background.
